Make this tour a priority. One of the most magnificent places we have visited in our life. EXCELLENT! This was the best place we have enjoyed from many years.This is the worth making a specific trip of all with the intention of seeing the Salar . If you're making your way overland through Bolivia and passing through there; its definitely worth seeing. The inspiring miraculous heaven I expected it to be. Overwhelmed. It's a bit chilli, so bring a windproof jacket and long pants , which is sufficient. Prepare for one of the highlights of your trip!! the salt flats itself is amazing.. Its a real WOW moment when you first drive on to the salt.

We started our tour of Salar Uyuni from San Pedro de Atacama. We spent the entire day choosing our company going into several shops and asking information as we were worried about the quality of services. We ended up booking with Lithium Travel and the woman insisted we would be Lithium and that she wouldn't give us to another company. Well, in the morning that ended up happening and we ended up with Estrella del Sur. It ended up being great. There were several vehicles that departed that day in a caravan, but the Estrella vehicles seemed to be the sturdiest ones and the only ones that were actually able to cross the salar while it was flooded. Our driver Oscar was great, he spent so much time with us setting up artistic photos at the salar. The food and accommodation was better than expected.

Make this tour a priority. One of the most magnificent places we have visited in our two and a half months in South America. Our tour operator Cordillera Traveller can be described with one word. EXCELLENT! This was the best value we have enjoyed in many years. Way to go Cordillera!

As for preserves, this one ranks the highest just due to its size, location and uniqueneess. Great experience for a once in a life time (unless you are in close proximity).

Yes they're amazing. Yes they're a photographer's playground. Yes they're something you wouldn't see anywhere else in the world. But is it worth making a specific trip all the way there solely with the intention of seeing the Salar? I think not. If you're making your way overland through Bolivia and passing through there; its definitely worth seeing. But its not the awe-inspiring miraculous heaven I expected it to be. Underwhelmed.

I travelled with cordellia(?) from San Pedro de Atacama, the agency listed in lonely planet. Don't believe everything you read, the accomodation, food and driver was excellent! No need of a sleeping bag when travelling with this tour operator. The driver Dani was considerate and informative (though only spoke Spanish, but very slow and easy to understand). I did the three day tour ending up in Uyuni. The tour is absolutly spectacular, never seen such a unique landscape before. I did suffer a bit from the altitude, partly because I didnt spend two days in San Pedro de Atacama in advance to get used to high altitude, but I used coco leaves which I found helpful. It's a bit chilli, so bring a windproof jacket and long pants (I travelled in March), which is sufficient. Prepare for one of the highlights of your trip!!
